📚✨ Ex Libris: What a Night! ✨📚

Last week, we gathered for Ex Libris, our annual signature fundraiser, and what an incredible evening it was! 💛

Thank you to everyone who attended, donated, volunteered, and helped raise funds to support adult literacy. A special shoutout to our amazing sponsors, including our Bestseller, Epic, and Masterpiece sponsors, for making this evening possible. Together, we’re opening doors to possibility for adults in our community.

What an unforgettable evening! ❤️📚

A heartfelt THANK YOU to everyone who joined us for last night’s **Ex Libris dinner** and showed their support for adult literacy.

We were wowed by bestselling author Curtis Chin’s stories of growing up Asian American in Detroit, inspired by GED graduate Kelly Turner’s powerful story of perseverance, and reminded of the incredible community that brings our mission to life.

To our generous donors, civic partners, dedicated volunteers, and everyone who believes in the power of literacy to transform lives — thank you for being part of this journey. Your support opens doors, creates opportunities, and helps adults build brighter futures.

Together, we’re making a difference, one story at a time. 💙
